I love potato salad, with mayonnaise and without (ie german potato salad). This is a recipe with mayonnaise, but there's not that much. This is a different potato salad than the one you're used to. There's a time and a place for mayonnaise-y potato salad with peas and some celery, but this is not one of those times. You need to try this version because:
a) it's not covered in mayonnaise
b) there's bacon
c) there's smoked salt
d) there are fresh herbs (thyme and parsley, although is substituted chives for parsley)
ahhh smoked salt. I got mine from Whole Foods. It's a good investment- it's kinda pricey, but you use it sparingly and it adds a good amount of smokiness to your dish.
This recipe is very easy and I added some of the bacon grease to mine to make it even more bacon-y. I think it tastes better the next day- a great make ahead recipe. Although next time I'm going to cut the potato into thinner pieces so it can soak up more of the onion, bacon, smokey, herb-y flavors.
